just to clarify, this thread is not the contest , the photos have to be in the pool behind the start bird to be in the contest.

the start bird is in the pool, and we'll be opening a voting thread tomorrow.

So take pity on a newbie and tell me if "behind the start bird" means put in the pool "before" or "after" the start bird. Right now there's only one bird "after" the start bird, but more than that here in the thread.
Tnx for a clarification -

once i put the start bird in the pool, any photo after that is in the contest.
some people added their pics to this thread early early, and that's ok.
but they aren't really in the contest unless they're behind the start birds.
just so we have a reference point as to where the voting starts.

btw, any photo can be removed from the pool, and replaced to be behind the start bird :)

I think my bokeh on this Jay in my back yard is pretty good but even if it was horrible, I'd still love this picture for the expression on the Jay's face :)

I posted my hawk photo in the earlier thread and now its in the group. I also posted a photo that isnt for the bokeh contest. Is that all right?
eva8 reply: yes it's perfectly fine :)

this has been a great week for our feeder and the birds have been going crazy.. I loved watching these two for an hour or so as they both tried to eat and yet let the other one know it wasn't welcome..

How about this one which directionally supports the picture composition:

or this one, where the sky peaking through the trees complements the bird color:

good examples of bokeh can also be found in the "beautiful bird bokeh" group
and the "bokeh - smooth & silky" group, among other places.

I couldn't decide between my two favorites, so here they are. The first is Banning after a bath.

But in this second one, I wanted you to look at Merlin first, but also to be aware of my daughter's reaction to her, so the background is soft, but not so blurry that it's unclear. This was the trickier shot, and I have to admit that I'm kind of pleased with the way it came out.

Birds who come to visit me every day, I feed them all Wintertime, even if it's so warm this year. These photos were taken through my kitchen window :-)

I used this guy once before back around Halloween, but I couldn't resist putting him back in the pool for our bokeh week.
